Salad Dressings That Burn Fat!

By Katrina Scott on
August 29th, 2011 Happy We LOVE Food Friday!! :) All of you are doing great on the ToneItUp Diet Plan ...but many of you are taking in too many calories on your salads... adding up to 300+ extra calories!  We put together our favorite dressing recipes that we put on our salads to keep the pounds off.   If you eat a salad every day you could lose 2 pounds of fat a month with just these small changes in your dressings. Here they are :) Enjoy!  

Salad Dressings That Burn Fat!

Sure salads are healthy, but some dressings can add up toÿ400 or more calories.  That's the equivalent of running a 5k!  We are going to assume that's not why you are reaching for your greens.  If you like to dress your salads, we put together these low calorie recipes, packed with flavor, so you can lose up to two pounds of fat a month this fall!  That is... if you are a 'creamy ranch junkie' or can't get away from your oil based house dressings.

*Each recipe makes 4-6 serving; making these dressings less than 130 calories!
